  • Abstract
    The simplification stated by Ohm´s law — resistance is the ratio of potential to current — is qualified for insulation materials. The current quantity is shown to be a superposition of four more or less independent components, each with different characteristics. This approach produces a method for eliminating common errors and inaccuracies from insulation resistance measurements.
